    What this number suggests to me is that Tumblr has revenue less than 20 million dollars. I figure:

    • about 100 employees
    • based in new York
    • average $100,000 salary
    • 10m annually in humans
    • 2-3m annually for office expenses
    • 20-30m annually for hosting

    Some of these numbers can be up or down, but when I worked at a similar company in New York, we had operating expenses in the same range. (Coincidentally, we had revenue on the same range, and got sold off in a fire sale)

      $100k avg salary for a New York tech company? The lowest level employees there almost certainly make well above that. If we’re talking avg salary it’s probably at least $200k.
